Listing a node information with condor_configure_pool displayed all the configuration parameters and their values. The node configuration parameters could have caused other relevant information about the node to scroll off the screen. With this update, when a node is listed with condor_configure_pool, the configuration parameters are no longer listed. To show the parameter information when listing a node, use the added verbose (-v|--verbose) option with the comment invocation.

Presently, when user does this:
% condor_configure_pool -l -n <node>
The output is:
Groups:
...
Features:
...
Configuration:
... very long config output ...
And the use has to scroll back quite a ways to see Groups or Features.
Some possible solutions:
1) just output configuration first, so short stuff is easily visible after
2) make full config output a "verbose" option on listing
3) support a "format" spec on command line, regarding which sections of output (group,feature,config) the user wants to see listed.
4) any combination of 1,2,3
